Boy, 10, trains to become jockey using a bouncing ball
Meet the 10-year-old training to become a jockey - using a bouncing ball.
Reo first fell in love with horses after winning a plush toy at an arcade and now dreams of racing professionally.
Despite not yet receiving formal jockey training, Reo practices everyday at home using a bouncing ball to strengthen his core and perfect his balance.
His training includes core workouts, horse riding lessons and sessions on an equicizer – a mechanical horse used for training.
Reo, from Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan, said: “I started training when I was nine.
